Yo wtf is going on with my brakes?

So check it, they work just fine and they stop the car really but good but there is like a 1-2" freeplay deadzone in the brakes at the top to where it just doesn't do anything then the brakes activate. They stop just fine and hard under pressure like at 45mph but at low speed, there isn't much pressure on them. They stop just fine and hard but there is free play in the beginning then they go to that firmish feel to where it stops the car.

I've bled the brakes until there is no air coming out of the valve and I've replaced the rotors and pads. It has been doing this since I got the car. New pads and rotors improved bite a little bit as well. I don't have any leaks in my car at all either. I drive an 06 GT.

Check your pedal endplay adjustment. Pic is for a general idea, not for your specific application. Also could be your master cylinder taking a dump. 10 year old car you never know

Alright alignment question, Seeing if I'm doing this right.

Here are my current readings of my front wheels

15/32 front lip
21/32 rear lip

This would mean I'd have toe out of 6/32 correct? So it would be .1875 inches of negative toe?

Question. I have oil mixing in my coolant but no coolant mixing with my oil. Radiator and resevoir have that typically milky sludge fuck goop but my oil is clean as fuck and my auto transmission fluid is clean as fuck. Truck runs fine with no overheating and no smoke or misfires. What could this be other than a blown head gasket or cracked head?

Its a 2000 ford ranger 2wd automatic

Might have a hole or crack in the coolant jackets that's letting oil in.
Engine block could be fucked or you can fix it with JB weld if minor. You're gonna have to disassemble the engine to find out sadly.

Cracked block. In reality its probably the head or gasket though.

The auto has nothing to do with the engine as far as fluids go.

Absolutely, it just has to be light and nimble enough.

In fact I'm an opponent of all this horsepower obsession because it makes cars unbalanced and serves you no decent use outside of dickwaving in a straight line.
